4509.39
No suspension when insurer obligated.

No license, registration, or nonresident's operating privilege
shall be suspended for nonpayment of a judgment under sections
4509.01 to
4509.78, inclusive, of the Revised
Code, if the registrar of motor vehicles finds that an insurer is obligated to
pay such judgment, at least to the extent and for the amounts required in such
sections, but has not paid such judgment. A finding by the registrar that an
insurer is obligated to pay a judgment is not binding upon the insurer and has
no legal effect except for the purpose of administering this section. Whenever
in any judicial proceeding it is determined by final judgment, decree, or order
that an insurer is not obligated to pay such judgment, the registrar,
notwithstanding any previous contrary finding, shall forthwith suspend the
license and registration and nonresident's operating privilege of any person
against whom such judgment was rendered, as provided in section
4509.37 of the Revised Code.
